Sexy ____ Costume Round-Up 2014: PART 1!!!!!!

My dear readers, it's the most wonderful time of the year! It's finally time to do a round-up of this year's most ridiculous Sexy ____ Costumes! We've been doing this for YEARS now, so you know that what we're making fun of is how horribly sexist and sometimes misogynistic Halloween costumes can be - everything is a Sexy version of whatever it is - and anything can be sexified. Yes, there are Sexy Dude Costumes, but certainly not in the sheer volume as Sexy Lady Costumes. And most importantly, the same type of costume has a big gender difference....

Weird - it's the same pose, same pin stripes, but one of them isn't wearing pants.... hrmph.

So! There are a lot this year, my dear readers, and I wouldn't dream of denying you the joy of seeing them all so it's a TWO PARTER! And! And! And! I'm going to divide the costumes into categories. Some of them are Not Safe For Work, so enjoy at your own risk. All costumes are linked to where you can buy them.... not that I recommend it but you do you.

What could be better than implied pedophilia combined with an opportunity to make sexual jokes about tasting cookies?

COSTUMES BASED ON POPULAR CHARACTERSSexy Olaf!

Alas, there is no hyperlink to this costume's page BECAUSE IT IS SOLD OUT. Sexy Olaf is THE Sexy ____ costume of the year, you guys! True story: there is an Olaf moment in Frozen that I found so funny the first time I saw it that I laughed for three minutes straight and had to take a break after because my muscles were sore from the guffaws. That doesn't mean I'm going to slap a white leotard on my body and a carrot on my nose and be Sexy Olaf for H'ween...

Nothing says SEXY quite like the very real problems with the American prison system. For a moment can we talk about the accessories? How is she supposed to put her arms down with that necklace/bracelet combo? It just seems impractical. Sexy Impracticality.

Is this some sort of mashup between the times Ariel has fins and legs? I mean, flipping your fins you won't get too far...legs are required for jumping, dancing....Am I to understand that she is only fish from rib cage to crotch? Someone explain to me what is sexy about THAT.

For when you absolutely, positively must dress up as a romanticized sex worker. I actually only included this REDUNDANT Sexy ___ costume because OH MY GOD YOU GUYS you know how they can't use the real names of things so they don't get sued? This is a Pretty Lady costume. I find that to be delightful.

Because I'm sexy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm sexy
Clap along if you feel like sexiness is the truth
Because I'm sexy
Clap along if you know what sexiness is to you
Because I'm sexy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

I'm slightly confused about how this is "sexy" but the item is called Sexy Cartoon Puppet, so who am I to question them? (Other than the fact that Pinocchio is a MARIONETTE but let's not quibble.) This is hilarious and terrifying. One million points to the model for making that face.

This is bizarrely specific and therefore my favorite Sexy ____ costume of all time (for the next ten minutes). I sincerely wish I was in the brainstorming meeting where someone suggested "Sexy My Fair Lady but you know that really classy scene with the racehorses?" And everyone else was like "Good idea, Mark." Cause you know Mark is always thinking outside the box.
